Mealtime Antics
Eating takes up a large portion of our day. I am constantly trying to get Katherine to eat more. We are always trying new foods. If she does not like something, I am not always persistant to get her to try it again. This week Sam and I had spaghetti carbonera for dinner and I put some on Katherine’s tray. She had a lot of fun with it and actually ate some as well.
Sometimes I have to feed Katherine before Sam gets home is she is hungry before he arrives. Then while we eat she plays in the kitchen. This week she decided to wear Hooligan’s food bowl as a hat. Luckily Hooligan had already finished. She got pretty good at getting the bowl to stay on her head. Then she also got pretty good at tipping it off so it would make a fun, and very loud, noise on the kitchen floor.
Katherine has new sunglasses. Last year she hated them and would pull them off. This year she thinks she is pretty cool. I think she looks like a little movie star. She wanted to wear them while snacking on grapes.
You will notice in this picture that Katherine has a bloody nose. She bit it on the kitchen floor. i am not really sure how. She was crying and I picked her up. She buried her head in my shoulder so it was a few minutes before I realized that she was covered in blood. Both Amy and Jen called while she was still crying. Jen asked if I took a picture for the blog. I said, “of course not, I am taking care of my baby.” Well 20 minutes later, a happy Katherine, finishing her snack, still had a blood nose so I did take a picture. She was having a lot of fun wiggling the spoon in her mouth.
